According to the center of Alcohol Studies at Yale University, there are approximately 60 to 70 million drinkers in the United States that are over the age of 15 years old.
Adolescents who consume alcohol are more likely to engage in risky sexual activities, like having sex with someone they don't know or failing to use birth control.
One study reports that a positive response to the question �''On any single occasion during the past 3 months, have you had more than 5 drinks containing alcohol?�'' accurately identifies individuals who meet the criteria for at-risk drinking or the criteria for alcohol abuse or dependence.
Commercial accidents also have been reported to involve a high rate of alcohol abuse; an example of this occurred during 1991- a subway motorman that was drinking derailed a train that was carrying hundreds of passengers. As a result of this alcohol related accident, 5 people were killed and well over 200 were injured.
